Title: Planetary gear train carrier
Inventor: OITA SHINJI
IPC: F16H57/023
Filed: 2014-06-13
Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a structure of a carrier of a planetary gear train capable of easily assembling a pinion gear.SOLUTION: A clearance (φA+B) formed between first wall surfaces 60 and rotatably accommodating therein a third planetary gear P3 is larger than a clearance (φA+C) between second wall surfaces 62 (φA+B>φA+C). This is because an eccentricity due to an oscillation that occurs when the third planetary gear P3 rotates is larger than a second clearance C necessary at a time of assembling the third planetary gear P3. A recess (60) is formed in each first wall surface 60 so as to secure a necessary dimension (=φA+B) when the third planetary gear P3 rotates, thereby making it possible to prevent the third planetary gear P3 from contacting a wall surface 56 during rotation and prevent wear due to the contact between the third planetary gear P3 and the wall surface 56.

Title: Recording device and recording control method
Inventor: MIYAKE NOBUTAKA
IPC: B41J11/46
Filed: 2014-07-30
Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To record a hard-to-view pattern for recording control by a recording device.SOLUTION: A variable Diff is indicative of a probability of a decoded code of a block on which electronic watermark information is superposed. When a P×Q-pixel block in decoding is included in an N×M-pixel block in recording, a code after decoding is higher in probability of 0 or 1. When the P×Q-pixel block is not included and a plurality of block pixels are referred to, the Diff is closed to 0. When a border of the block in recording is exceeded, the value of Diff changes in sign. A pixel position of the value of zero is estimated as a border of a block on which electronic watermark information in recording is superposed. After the block border estimation, a separation between a distance between block borders and a distance on logical coordinates is evaluated so as to detect an increase in conveyance speed when the estimated border movement quantity is larger than a predetermined reference movement quantity or a decrease in conveyance speed when smaller. A variation quantity is fed back to sheet recording control.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 18
